Thanks I said as I pulled off my work clothes.

No thanks don’t worry about me, I would be fine I said proving stubborn.
You take this he said sternly.
Thanks I said as I took the money,so what’s your name I asked.
You can call me Liam he said smiling.
Ok bye Liam, I would be off now. I said as I walked out of the restaurant.
The cool breeze blew against my skin, immediately I came out, and walked towards my bicycle.
I rode my bicycle along the way, I could see a car following me, but I cared less until I got home.
I unlock the door and went in, suddenly someone wrapped his hands around me I did not feel anything, so I knew exactly who it was. Danny! I said as I turned around only to meet those cute face.

if you have come here to mock me, then go ahead it’s not a new thing I said.

what if someone see’s you I asked and he chuckled.

How’s Jay I asked unexpectedly.
After everything he has done to you, you still care about him .
Danny I really miss him I said as I losen myself from his grip and spread my cloth on the ground and laid on it, I was dead tired.
Where are your parents? I thought you live with them before Jay took you he asked?
Fk parents I said as I sighed heavily, suddenly his phone rang.
Mara I have to go it seems the media knows am here and they are on their way, see you some other times he said and threw an envelope at me then ran out.
Crazy guy I said as I opened the envelope it was filled with money.
I smiled am gonna get some new things tomorrow.
Next morning
I dressed up for work, I didn’t want to be late, I rolled my bicycle outside and ignoring the stares people were giving to me, am already used to it.
Thank God they stopped calling me badluck, why won’t they when they have seen me on TV as Mabel’s twin sister and Jay lover and Danny was my best friend. I chuckled at the thought of Mabel being my sister, impossible.
Badluck is back a girl said and she and her friends burst into laughter, when I thought it has ended.
What was she thinking, that my crush would have a thing for her no way, thank God he told you, you aren’t his class. I wonder why she looks like my crush girlfriend Mabel.
I ignored their words and started riding my bicycle not until a car splash water on me. I angrily stopped the bicycle and Mabel and her friends came out.
oops whom do we have here she said smiling as she came out with her friends Alvira and Elva.
She disgust me already Alvira said stepping back.
Look this is just the beginning, you cross path with the wrong person and I make sure am gonna make you pay she said.
Mabel let’s go Liam said sternly.
But I was just giving her my own piece of mind she said.
Now he ordered.
ok fine, and you Mara Don’t think you had escaped and am coming for you she said.
I cleaned my body and rode away as they left, I feel so pained and bittered I wish my parents were here I can’t believe my age mate were talking to me that way. They better be dead because if I ever come across them, am gonna kill them.
Mabel’s Pov

Week later
Mara’s Pov
It’s already been a week now since I saw jay last, I have been praying that I meet him one day.
Danny already furnished my room. It was hard letting him do it because I don’t want a situation where someone would say he gave me life. Even though he said those things, my stupid heart still beat for him and I hate myself for that.
Mara you have a visitor the madam said.
ok ma I said and walked out, I turned and it was Mabel’s dad.
What are you doing here, did you miss your way I asked.
No dear, I came because of you he said calmly.
For what I asked pissed off.

A driver would come pick you up tommorow get ready he said and entered his car and left.
Hours later
I smiled as I pushed the door opened and walked in. I jumped on my bed and pick up the remote and turned on the TV. The first news I saw was that Jay and Danny were celebrating their birthday next month, I never knew anyway.
Next morning
I smiled as I wore my uniform again in one week, am so happy at least am gonna be seeing him.
I parked my hair in a bun and applied mascara. I picked up the bag from the bed. My books were still intact the driver was already waiting so I walked out after locking the door.

I looked around searching for Jay, but it seems they were not around.
I plugged in my ear phone listening to music .
I heard people screaming, even though the ear piece was on, I could hear their scream then I looked up it was Danny, Jay and Mabel.
I felt my blood rush as I stared at Jay, he died his hair blue, I couldn’t help staring at him, I felt like am loosing my breath now.
Suddenly his gaze fell on me and his face changed to that of total h0rror.
